  From No.1 bestselling author Toni Maguire comes a new true story of shame, silence, abuse, and survival. 
   
   
   
  Ryan and Phil had always been inseparable. Twins born thirty-five minutes apart, Ryan was the protective one, constantly looking out for his younger brother. They can't remember how old they were when the abuse started, but they can remember their uncle very clearly. 
   
   
   
  A frequent visitor to their home in Lincoln, he lavished their family with expensive treats. School holidays and weekends were spent visiting him, when he would often take the two little boys aside to play the games he liked. 
   
   
   
  Trapped with him, day after day, year after year, the abuse continued until Ryan and Phil turned sixteen. After a showdown with Ryan when he was finally big enough, their uncle never approached them again. 
   
   
   
  Nearly twenty years after the abuse ended, Ryan and his wife decided to foster troubled children, making their home a safe place filled with love for those in desperate need of it. Ryan and Phil suffered for years at the hands of their uncle, but throughout it all their bond held them together.

  Laurie and Werther Louisa May...

  There are great deal of similarities between the arcs of Laurie in Little Women and Goethe's "sorrows of young werther." Both stories follow a young man's journey from innocence to experience and disillusionment, but the endings are vastly different. In this book we compare and contrast the two arcs to see which is more tragic. One of Louisa May Alcott´s favourite writers was the German poet Goethe and Laurie´s character arc in Little Women is surprisingly similar to Goethe´s young hero, Werther. Little Women Podcast is an ongoing series of video essays, articles and podcast episodes that examines the intersections in Louisa May Alcott´s Little Women. 
  Hosted by Alcott essayist Niina Niskanen. Regular visits from literal scholars and Little Women fans. You can listen to Little Women Podcast on YouTube, Spotify, I Heart Radio and all other major podcast platforms. 
  Goethe was one of the most praised German authors of his time. Louisa May Alcott was a big fan of Goethe. Louisa was a transcendentalist. The whole worldview of the transcendentalist could be described as a nature-centric form of Christianity. It was based on German philosophy and German romanticism. Goethe was one of the most important literal inspirations for the transcendentalist because he captured the essence of their belief into poetic form. 
  Louisa May Alcott according to her own words, grew up hearing stories of Goethe on her father's knee. Bronson Alcott's library included a contemporary translation of Goethe's biography, and we can assume that it was one of the first books that Louisa read. One of Lou's most famous literal characters, Laurie from Little Women is partially based on Goethe and Goethe's literal heroes.

  Unexpected Lessons From...

  Patti Smith

  You will laugh and cry when you read how Patti Smith lovingly and honestly reveals transformative lessons gleaned from forty-plus years of caring for (and being tutored by) her son, Christopher. His diagnosis as a baby with Down Syndrome at first tilted her world off-axis, only to reveal itself to be the thing that actually set her worldview at the exact right angle. 
  In an inspirational and heartwarming manner, Patti explains how her life was changed for the better in profound ways. 
  With her son as her master teacher, Patti learned to see life through his perspective and discover the joy in situations requiring her to dig deeply into her own psyche to identify beliefs needing adjustment. She shares the way she changes with vulnerability and light-heartedness, while giving credit to her clever son who is respectfully referred to as her own Professor Higgins. 
  This book is not just a book about how to raise a child with Down Syndrome, but an inspiring and humorous reflection of parenting and relationships in general. 
  Awarded the Olive Woolley Burt Award for Creative Writing in the New Voices category. 
  What readers are saying: 
  "This book changed the way I want to parent!” - Ryan H. 
  “An incredible book, I laughed, I cried, I couldn't put it down!” -Julie L. 
  “I loved this book so much I purchased extra for friends and family to read.” -Chante M. 
  "A wonderful self-help book disguised as a memoir." - S.B.

  The true story of an airman's audacious escape from occupied France in World War Two. 
   
   
   
  Perfect for fans of The Great Escape, The 21 Escapes of Lt Alastair Cram, and The Wooden Horse. 
   
   
   
  Sir Basil Embry's Blenheim bomber was shot down in the summer of 1940. 
   
   
   
  During the course of his time in enemy territory he broke out from a column of prisoners while having a Nazi machine gun aimed at him, fought against his captors with stolen weapons, hid in stinking manure, and even posed as a member of the Irish Republican Army in order to throw his captors off the scent of his true identity. 
   
   
   
  In total he was captured three times and three times he refused to submit. Only through sheer courage and wit did he make his way back to Britain to fight and fly again. This is his remarkable story. 
   
   
   
  Anthony Richardson served as Adjutant in the same squadron as Embry later in the war and was told about these astounding exploits first-hand. This book will undoubtedly amaze all interested in moments of amazing fortitude in the face of overwhelming odds.
